Default My new '98 993 C4S
After a whole lot of looking,sorting and sifting the search is over. The hand holding by some of you guys was invaluable (Thanks Eric The Pilot !). I now own a beautiful black on black 1998 C4S. Cool options include Litronics, clear corners, aluminum gauges and......insignia delete. Also has eight way adjustable seats which I really wanted because I'm a big believer in proper body mechanics. I will post options sticker for those interested. Need rear shocks(I am thinking Bilstein HD's) and a couple of tires but the car is already bringing a smile to my face every time I check to make sure it's really in my garage ! I also need some info on the door panels as the armrest storage box lids don't line up/close properly. I'm sure there's a thread somewhere on this site. In any case, thanks to all involved and many of you who posted buying information here who may not even know you were involved.
Sorry for mediocre cellphone pics and large file size.
Oh yeah, because I know you wanna know 42K miles

Welcome, good call on black. While they are hardest to keep clean; it is a proven fact they are the fastest 993s.

Thanks guys. Previous owner almost drove the front two wheels off it so just waiting for the two new Pirellis and some shocks and the wheels will definitely be spinning. Thoughts on Bilstein HD's on rear?

Nice ride - now for the slope!

Change all four shocks at a time - otherwise you might get some weird body dynamics. Put HD's all around.

Cheers,

Mike
